Importing automated test scripts from a test machine

You can use the test tool adapters to import references to multiple automated test scripts on a local test machine in your test lab.

Before you can import references to automated test scrips that are local to a test machine, the appropriate adapter must be running. See the section on "Integrating with Rational® test tools" for information on starting the adapters.

Note: Each test tool implements its own integration with Quality Manager. The instructions provided here do not cover all of the details of each integration. Therefore, be sure to refer to the specific test tool for further details.
To import automated test scripts from a local test lab machine:
  1. From the left sidebar, point to the Construction icon (Construction), and click Import Test Script.

    The following window opens:

    Import Test Script window

  2. Select one of the following test script types:
    1. For Rational Performance Tester, select Performance Test.
    2. For Rational Service Tester, select Service Test.
    3. For Rational® Test RealTime™, select Rational Test RealTime.
    4. For Rational Functional Tester, select Functional Tester.
  3. Click Use test resources that are local to a test machine.
  4. Click the Select Adapter button.

    The following window opens.

    Import Test Script window
  5. Provide the project path on the test machine to where the test resource resides, for example, c:\workspaces\rft1\Altoro1.
    Note: For some tools, such as Functional Tester, this means the project's full file system path. For Performance Tester and Service Tester, this path includes the project name that is in the workspace associated with the adapter.
  6. Select the appropriate Machine Name.
    Note: Note the green icon under the State column, indicating that the adapter is running.
  7. Click Next.

    The following window opens, showing the scripts that are available in the specified project:

  8. Select the scripts that you wish to reference by selecting the checkbox and then click Finish.
  9. Click Import.
  10. To confirm that your test scripts are created, point to the Construction icon (Construction) along the left sidebar, and click All Test Scripts.
Note: When you run the script, you must run it using the same adapter.
